    • To direct your search, choose the field in which you want to search the word or expression.
    • Search in the field assumes by default the expression in quotes, e.g. European union will retrieve all records containing the literal term "European Union"

Start date: 1994
History:
The BIAL Foundation was created in 1994 by Laboratórios BIAL in conjunction with the Council of Rectors of Portuguese Universities. BIAL’s Foundation mission is to foster the scientific study of Man from both the physical and spiritual perspectives.
Along the years the BIAL Foundation has developed an important relationship with the scientific community, first in Portugal and after worldwide. Today it is an institution of reference which aims to stimulate new researches that may help people, promote more health and contribute to new milestones to gain access to knowledge.
Among its activities the BIAL Foundation manages the BIAL Award, created in 1984, one of the most important awards in the Health field in Europe. The BIAL Award rewards both the basic and the clinical research distinguishing works of major impact in medical research.
The BIAL Foundation also assigns Scientific Research Scholarships for the study of neurophysiological and mental health in people, arousing the interest of researchers in the areas of Psychophysiology and Parapsychology.
To date the BIAL Foundation has supported 461 projects, more than 1000 researchers, with research groups in twenty-seven countries, resulting, until April 2013, in about 600 full papers, out of which 172 published in indexed international journals with an average impact factor of 3.6 and a substantial number of citations (1665).
Since 1996 the BIAL Foundation organizes the Symposia entitled "Behind and Beyond the Brain", a Forum that gathers well renowned neurosciences speakers and the BIAL Foundation Fellows which are spread around the world.
Classified as an institution of public utility, the BIAL Foundation includes among its patrons the Portuguese President, the Portuguese Universities Rectors' Council and the Portuguese Medical Association.

Title: BIAL Grants
Start date: 1994
History:
In 1994 the BIAL Foundation launched a programme of science research grants with the aim of encouraging the research into Man’s physical and mental processes, namely in fields still largely unexplored but which warrant further scientific analysis, as Psychophysiology and Parapsychology.
Since its launch, applications to the BIAL grants have been increasing. Up to now 461 projects have been supported, involving more than 1000 researchers from 27 countries.
The approved applications have benefited from grants in amounts comprised between €5,000 and €50, 000. The amount to be granted is fixed by the Scientific board according to the needs of each project.
The supported projects have originated, until April 2013, in about 600 full papers, 172 out of which were published in indexed international journals with an average impact factor of 3.6 and a substantial number of citations (1665).
Among the BIAL Foundation fellows is worth highlighting the presence of scientists from prestigious universities from the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Russia, Germany, Japan, France, Canada, and many others.
The BIAL grants are promoted biannually.

Reduced dynamic functional connectivity between salience and executive brain networks in insomnia disorder
Publication year: 2019

Visitante: / https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/jsr.12953
Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Research into insomnia disorder has pointed to large-scale brain network dysfunctions. Dynamic functional connectivity is instrumental to cognitive functions but has not been investigated in insomnia disorder. This study assessed between-network functional connectivity strength and variability in patients with insomnia disorder as compared with matched controls without sleep complaints. Twelve-minute resting-state functional magnetic resonance images and T1-weighed images were acquired in 65 people diagnosed with insomnia disorder (21–69 years, 48 female) and 65 matched controls without sleep complaints (22–70 years, 42 female). Pairwise correlations between the activity time series of 14 resting-state networks and temporal variability of the correlations were compared between cases and controls. After false discovery rate correction for multiple comparisons, people with insomnia disorder and controls did not differ significantly in terms of mean between-network functional connectivity strength; people with insomnia disorder did, however, show less functional connectivity variability between the anterior salience network and the left executive-control network. The finding suggests less flexible interactions between the networks during the resting state in people with insomnia disorder.

Title:
Altered electrophysiological meta-state dynamics in disorders of consciousness
Publication year: 2025

Visitante: / https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2025.121519
Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Background
This multi-centric study aimed to explore differences in brain activity patterns in patients with disorders of consciousness (DoC), including unresponsive wakefulness syndrome (UWS) and minimally conscious state (MCS).
Methods
Using high-density electroencephalographic (EEG) recordings from 368 DoC patients, 39 who emerged from MCS (eMCS), and 73 healthy controls, we examined instantaneous functional connectivity-based meta-states acting as attractors in a dynamical system, extracted by means of community detection algorithms and recurrence analysis. We analyzed data from two patient cohorts and included resting-state and auditory processing tasks in four frequency bands (delta, theta, alpha, beta) and from three perspectives, namely: (i) discrete activation of dominant states, (ii) a dynamical system composed of attractor states and (iii) the correlation and anticorrelation patterns of the active states.
Results
Findings revealed that while the overall structure of brain connectivity remained stable after injury, patients with DoC and those who emerged showed notable differences in the speed and consistency of how their brain states activated. Specifically, in higher frequencies, UWS patients exhibited faster, and less stable dynamics, shorter dwell times and decreased meta-state anticorrelation compared to those in MCS and eMCS. Moreover, a four-way combined learning classification analysis showed that the measures were able to distinguish the UWS and MCS subgroups.
Significance
These brain state dynamics could serve as valuable markers for assessing states of consciousness. Our results highlight the potential of using high-temporal resolution dynamic brain activity patterns to improve the understanding of altered consciousness and their application to clinical settings.
